Chapter 138: Chapter 36: Misunderstanding Resolved [Votes for the new book!]_1

"What are you doing?!" Chu Liang shouted loudly, simultaneously erecting his figure.

The opponent’s move was within his expectations, but he couldn’t believe that the Soul Envoy of Underworld King Sect would actually use witchcraft first!

The Underworld King Sect was once part of the Heavenly Star Divine Sect, practicing the Heavenly Star Oddity Technique. After splitting and falling into the Demonic Path, they absorbed some Cultivation Techniques from the Demon Cult. But no matter what, they were far from witchcraft.

The Forbidden Land, where all cultivation is prohibited!

All kinds of Divine Skills and Magic Artifacts are difficult to use.

This situation was starting to become dangerous, but Chu Liang, who had experience with forbidden techniques, immediately jumped back and created some distance. He thought that the other party probably didn’t know about his Ten Tigers’ Power and Brick Fighting technique. If he wanted to win with martial arts, he was not completely without the power to fight.

However, in the face of unclear enemy strengths and weaknesses, he still chose to first escape from the range of the Forbidden Land and notify his master with the Tailing Jade Talisman. Since the opponent dared to use the Forbidden Land, they must have some means, Chu Liang’s choice was extremely cautious.

The man known as "Sixty" spoke few harsh words and remained silent.

As Chu Liang was preparing to escape from the range of the Forbidden Land, "Sixty" did not just watch him slip away. With a flick of his hand, he threw out a shower of silvery light!

Hidden weapons?

Whizzing sounds began to fill the air——

Faced with the silver light flying towards him like a torrential rain, Chu Liang instantly deployed body techniques, flashing and retreating, barely avoiding all the silver needles.

Looking again at those silver needles that had fallen on the ground, they quickly turned soft and turned into worm-like silver threads, suddenly burrowing into the ground.

This made Chu Liang’s scalp numb.

What needle? These were clearly worms!

Gu insects!

He didn’t dare to think about the consequence of a Gu insect burrowing into his body and didn’t want to entangle with this strange opponent anymore. He moved swiftly, already close to the edge of the Forbidden Land.

"Sixty" seemed puzzled and muttered to himself, "Retreat Body Technique?"

But as Chu Liang was about to escape, he didn’t hesitate any longer, and his figure chased after him, moving mysteriously quick—like a ghost!

As Chu Liang was running for his life, he just managed to leave the range of the Forbidden Land, when countless rain-like silver needles came shooting from behind. He flipped over and narrowly dodged them.

He saw "Sixty" wave his hand, seemingly dismissing the Forbidden Land.

The previous Witch Clan elder couldn’t remove the spell because he died, while "Sixty", who was alive, simply raised his hand to withdraw his witchcraft.

Immediately after,

He took out a black umbrella.

Whoosh——

As soon as the black umbrella opened, "Sixty’s" figure slightly paused, and the next second, he magically blinked in front of Chu Liang!

Such a fast blink!

Chu Liang was taken aback, seeing "Sixty" so close. It was then he noticed that upon opening, the black umbrella revealed a faint black humanoid shadow underneath.

Could it be a living soul?

The living soul was holding onto "Sixty" by the waist, flying forward, resulting in the blink-like body movement. Was this the Ghost Control Technique under the umbrella? How could he know everything?

The speed of controlling the ghost to move forward was probably second only to the Shrinkage technique used by Immortal Jiang in the Divine Techniques that Chu Liang had seen.

After all, that was a pure manifestation of teleportation.

But even though he was close, Chu Liang already had the Tailing Jade Talisman in his hand. With a gentle press, he could summon his master.

But in front of him, "Sixty" took out a huge curved knife with a shimmering silver light. The edge of the curved knife had a dangerous black circle.

Poison.

This weapon further confirmed a guess in Chu Liang’s heart. As he saw the cold blade of "Sixty" flickering in front of him, it was about to reach him.

However, Chu Liang’s finger didn’t crush the Jade talisman. Instead, he shouted loudly: "You are not a Soul Envoy, you are a disciple of Sanjue Valley! Do you know that I am from the Shu Mountain Sect!"

...

Whoosh——

The curved knife whistled to a stop a few inches from his head, but Chu Liang remained calm. If the opponent hadn’t stopped just now, he could have summoned the Green Leaf Magical Instrument to encase himself and fly away, creating distance.

Courage comes from self-confidence.

However, the True Qi and poison on this blade are already close to touching his hair, which makes him feel somewhat chilly on his back.

"Are you from the Shu Mountain Sect?"

"Sixty" posed a question while removing her hood, revealing a delicate face.

It’s actually a girl?

Chu Liang was slightly surprised.

The one standing in front of him in a black robe turned out to be a cold-faced, pretty young girl. With ash-gray hair that reached just past her ears, she could be considered short-haired among women. With a pale face and indifferent gaze, she appeared childlike, seeming a bit out of place with her icy demeanor.

As expected, her height was also put on. After opening her hood, her stature shortened slightly, and her voice became light but emotionless.

A small girl holding a massive curved knife, with a facial expression that indicated she was ruthless and a woman of few words, made the scene somewhat strange.

"Correct." Chu Liang saw the sincerity of the other party and also removed his hood, revealing a harmless smile, "Chu Liang, a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sect."

The reason why he was sure that the other party was not a disciple of the Underworld King Sect was not only because of some suspicions he had at the beginning, but also because of the Divine Skills she had just displayed.

Witchcraft, Gu Techniques, Poison Techniques... these are not unusual if they belong to one person, but if someone knows all of them, it becomes strange.

Plus, the umbrella’s Ghost Control Technique and the curved knife from the Southern Region were both unique skills of the Sanjue Valley. She didn’t display any of the Heavenly Star Oddity Techniques or Soul Techniques that the Soul Envoy of the Underworld King Sect had previously used.

This convinced him that the other party was indeed a disciple of Sanjue Valley. Considering this, all the strange behavior of the other party beforehand now makes sense.

"Hmm..." The curved knife girl thought for a moment, then nodded, "I believe you..."

Chu Liang gave a slight smile. As expected, as soon as his righteous and awe-inspiring face was revealed, he would gain the other party’s trust.

Immediately afterwards he heard the girl say: "The Soul Envoys of the Underworld King Sect must have at least the cultivation of the Golden Core Realm. You are only at the Third Realm, it’s impossible for you to be real."

"..." So, she trusts him because his cultivation is low?

"My name is Luo Yao." The girl put away her curved knife and told him her name in a cold voice.

"Eh?" Upon hearing this name, Chu Liang felt a sense of familiarity. He had read in the Seven Star Mansion Report that a ruthless and talented female disciple came out of the Sanjue Valley, who alone had slaughtered several members of the Witch Gu Evil Sect.

So, this girl is the one?

Thinking about it carefully, he was able to dodge her just now with a few tricks, but if she were to relentlessly pursue him, other than asking his master and the Green Leaf to flee, he would have no power to retaliate at all.

Her cultivation should not be inferior to Jiang Yuebai’s, and combined with various bizarre and wicked methods, it is quite scary.

At the beginning, she regarded him as a demonic cultivator of the Golden Core Realm from the Underworld King Sect, and started with the Forbidden Land. But he managed to escape using the Retreat Body Technique. If she knew that he was at the Divine Consciousness stage from the start and attacked with a real blade, he would absolutely not be able to stop her.

"So it’s Miss Luo, I’ve heard a lot about you." chu Liang smiled.

"What are you doing here?" Luo Yao skipped the pleasantries and asked directly.

"I came here to slay the demonic cultivators after learning of the Underworld King Sect’s action from the Soul Summoning Order." Chu Liang answered, and asked back, "Miss Luo, how did you use the Soul Summoning Order?"

It was a lucky coincidence that the Soul Envoy had captured his entire Godly Soul and stored it in the Underworld Heavenly Book, which enabled him to use the Soul Summoning Order.

Such a coincidence should be quite rare.

"I captured an evil Soul Envoy. I originally intended to extract his living soul and refine it into witchcraft materials, but I accidentally found that I could use his Soul Summoning Order afterward." Luo Yao said, "I thought I was the only one who knew how to crack this Soul Summoning Order. I wanted to take this opportunity to kill more demonic cultivators from the Underworld King Sect and seize all their Soul Summoning Orders. I didn’t expect you to discover this method too."

"It was just a coincidence." Chu Liang said with a wry smile.

I’m not as ruthless as you.

Looking back, although the Soul Envoy was ruthless when he captured souls, in front of this little girl, he was just a plaything, denied even the right to be killed.

"Alas, what a pity." Luo Yao sighed softly again.

"What’s the pity?" Chu Liang asked.

"The elders of my valley are waiting outside. I promised them I’d extract more souls and give them the Soul Summoning Orders, so we could all infiltrate the Underworld King Sect together." Luo Yao said, "Once this method is discovered, it won’t be possible to use it a second time. They all wanted to experience it."

Really now.

You guys think this is some kind of experiential amusement activity?

He could only say, "There will be many more opportunities. We can join forces to deal with ’Fifty-nine’ and the Earth Slaying Envoy."

Luo Yao said nonchalantly, "I can deal with the Soul Envoy alone. As for the Earth Slaying Envoy... he’s at the Fifth Stage, so it’s not that easy to deal with. I’ll have to think of a way."
